Box-office monster “Zootopia” has been called the “most Easter egg-packed(彩蛋) movie ever made by Disney”. One of

16、It was midday when I got the call that my grandfather was not well and he was quickly getting worse. My family did
not know how long he would stay in the world. I knew I had to get to the hospital to tell him how much I loved him. As I
drove to the hospital, I pictured him before I got to tell him how much he meant to me. Trying to fight back the tears, I
wanted to stay calm when I saw him.
When I got to the hospital, I hurriedly looked for his hospital room. I found him in a semi-conscious state (半清醒状态).
On my knees, I said softly, “Hello, Grandpa.”
Still feeling shy, I decided not to leave his bedside without letting him know. While I asked about how he was, he told me,
“I’ll be fine, Henry.” although we both knew that wasn't true. Then he asked me with a smile how I was doing.
Hearing what my grandpa said, I was much moved. I made the decision that I had to show my gratitude for him. As I
found all the courage (勇气) I had, I hold his hand tightly. I cried out, “Grandpa. I just want to let you know how much
I love you. I hope you already know that yet I just want to make sure.” By this time, tears were rolling down my face. All
those years of love that I had shut and not let him know, became free.
Smilingly, he said, “I know. Thank you for telling me that. All I have on this planet is my family and my love for them. If
there is anything I could ask of you, I want you to be good to your family, your mother, your father, and your brother.
That’s all I want of you.”
What I learned that day changed my whole life. From then on, I began telling people how much I love them, care for
them, and respect them. I get in touch with, for example, my babysitter, my barber, to show my appreciation. I go down
into the city once a week and serve pizza to the homeless. I wake up every morning and list everything I’m thankful to in
my life.
1．The author got the news of Grandpa’s illness________.
A．in the morning B．at noon
C．in the evening D．at midnight
2．The author didn’t tell Grandpa his love because _______ to say love to Grandpa before.
A．he was too shy B．he was too frightened
C．he was too busy D．he had no chances
3．The underlined word “gratitude” means _________ in Chinese.
A．兴奋 B．惊讶
C．害怕 D．感激
4．The author wrote this passage to tell readers mainly about ________.
A．how to think highly of others
B．how to help others get out of trouble
C．how to get in touch with others
D．how to share feelings with others
5．The story develops with the changes of __________.

19、Great Changes around Me
In the past few years, great changes have taken place around me. The roads used to be narrow and crowded. The
houses were old and small. The air wasn't fresh enough. Sometimes, there was terrible smell. The river was polluted
badly and there was rubbish in it.
Nowadays, the roads are wide and clean. It's really convenient for people to go out. We can choose different kinds
of transportation to go anywhere. Lots of tall buildings have been built in the city. Most of us have moved to big
beautiful houses. The sky is blue and the cloud is white .The birds are singing happily. My hometown looks like a big
garden with green trees, grass and colorful flowers.
Our country is rich and strong, we are living a happy life. I'm sure as time goes on, our life will become better and
better!

Box-office monster “Zootopia” has been called the “most Easter egg-packed(彩蛋) movie ever made by Disney”. One of
its Easter eggs comes to the species of the news anchor seen on the film’s ZNN channel. Depending on where in the
world you’re watching “Zootopia”, the type of animals hosting may change.
Zootopia went a step further to make the different versions (版本). In the US, Canada, France, the news anchor is
moose(麋鹿). In Brazil, it’s a jaguar(美洲虎). Australia and New Zealand get a koala; while Chinese audiences see a
giant panda.

16、It was midday when I got the call that my grandfather was not well and he was quickly getting worse. My family did
not know how long he would stay in the world. I knew I had to get to the hospital to tell him how much I loved him. As I
drove to the hospital, I pictured him before I got to tell him how much he meant to me. Trying to fight back the tears, I
wanted to stay calm when I saw him.
When I got to the hospital, I hurriedly looked for his hospital room. I found him in a semi-conscious state (半清醒状态).
On my knees, I said softly, “Hello, Grandpa.”
Still feeling shy, I decided not to leave his bedside without letting him know. While I asked about how he was, he told me,
“I’ll be fine, Henry.” although we both knew that wasn't true. Then he asked me with a smile how I was doing.
Hearing what my grandpa said, I was much moved. I made the decision that I had to show my gratitude for him. As I
found all the courage (勇气) I had, I hold his hand tightly. I cried out, “Grandpa. I just want to let you know how much
I love you. I hope you already know that yet I just want to make sure.” By this time, tears were rolling down my face. All
those years of love that I had shut and not let him know, became free.
Smilingly, he said, “I know. Thank you for telling me that. All I have on this planet is my family and my love for them. If
there is anything I could ask of you, I want you to be good to your family, your mother, your father, and your brother.
That’s all I want of you.”
What I learned that day changed my whole life. From then on, I began telling people how much I love them, care for
them, and respect them. I get in touch with, for example, my babysitter, my barber, to show my appreciation. I go down
into the city once a week and serve pizza to the homeless. I wake up every morning and list everything I’m thankful to in
my life.

19、Great Changes around Me
In the past few years, great changes have taken place around me. The roads used to be narrow and crowded. The
houses were old and small. The air wasn't fresh enough. Sometimes, there was terrible smell. The river was polluted
badly and there was rubbish in it.
Nowadays, the roads are wide and clean. It's really convenient for people to go out. We can choose different kinds
of transportation to go anywhere. Lots of tall buildings have been built in the city. Most of us have moved to big
beautiful houses. The sky is blue and the cloud is white .The birds are singing happily. My hometown looks like a big
garden with green trees, grass and colorful flowers.
Our country is rich and strong, we are living a happy life. I'm sure as time goes on, our life will become better and
better!
